A yeast infection has a white discharge, not white spots. Warts are going to be present on the skin on and around your vulva, and they may not be obvious to you. A yeast infection is internal, with a white discharge, and sometimes itching or burning in your vagina, and around your labia. They are two completely different problems with different symptoms. It can also be likely that you don’t feel or see warts.

What is the difference between a yeast infection and vaginal discharge?

Question by Alicia: What is the difference between a yeast infection and vaginal discharge?
I think that I may have a yeast infection. What I want to know is this, is Monistat a safe treatment for a yeast infection? I haven’t gone to a doctor to get it verified and don’t plan on it but I want to make sure it’s safe before I start using it. Also, if this is just regular vaginal discharge, will using Monistat bring up any side affects?

Vaginal discharge is supposed to happen…it’s your body’s way of keeping your goods clean. A yeast infection should have a foul odor and the discharge should be yellowish or of some color and will probably clump together.

I doubt you would have any trouble with Monistat if you don’t have an infection, but you may want to try one of those home tests for yeast infections that they have out now. There is no point in treating yourself for a yeast infection if you don’t have one.
